Meet 21-year-old Alyssa Campanella, your new Miss USA: She's beautiful, talented and, best of all, not willfully ignorant of hundreds of years of scientific knowledge. The winner of this year's Miss USA pageant believes in evolution!

In fact, Campanella, who says she's a "science geek," was one of just two out of 51 contestants who believe in evolution. Evolutionary theory would probably say that this shows the capability for strong rational thought gives humans a competitive advantage. This makes sense, since the the thing Darwin was second-most famous for, after coming up with the theory of evolution, was winning beauty pageants. True fact, just like evolution.
